Nature and more strives to continually increase transparency, mutual awareness and shared responsibility of all stakeholders in the food supply chain with regards to food quality, ecology and social justice.

Initiatives

Most of us just want to make the world a little bit better, if only step by step. On this page we show you the special initiatives that Nature & More growers, Nature & More consumers and we ourselves are undertaking towards a more sustainable global society.

Our food security and climate are threatened by degradation of soils. In 2050, more than 9 billion people will inhabit this planet and we will need healthy soils to feed them. Research shows that approximately 750 million hectares of soil are lightly degraded. Organic agriculture can help to restore these soils completely and make them more productive. In December 2012, Nature & More has fired off a new campaign, together with a large number of partners: WWW.SAVEOURSOILS.COM.

In the 1 Cent for the Future campaign, Nature & More works together with growers to set up local small projects for social causes. All projects serve the causes of freedom, justice or solidarity. For each kilogram of product sold, 1 cent is set apart and goes to the project. So every time you buy the product, you contribute to the good cause. That's why the growers say "Thank you!" Here's a selection of ongoing projects:

All around the world Nature & More farmers are making a positive contribution to their local communities. But here in Europe, many of you are also doing great things for the community on a voluntary basis. If you do, you can become a Hero of Nature & More and win fresh organic fruits and vegetables for your cause. Every month we select a project to sponsor, and you are invited to apply. Here are some projects we have rewarded so far:

On April 22 2012 Nature & More launched the "Bees Love Organic" campaign. During the campaign period from April till July we handed out 400,000 bags of bee-friendly flower seeds in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Sweden, the UK and other countries! By planting these seeds in your garden or on your balcony consumers helped to create 400,000 square meters of organic, flowery, bee-friendly environment. UPDATE: the campaign has ended and bags of seed are not available anymore.

For centuries the date has been a symbol of hospitality in the Middle East. Nature & More now turns it into a messenger of peace. In the framework of the "1 Cent for the Future" campaign and with the motto "Fancy a peace date?", a percentage of the date sales revenue will be donated to the Food Box project of Selina Hami (25), who is helping families in Syria.
